You'll need to use the NotesSQL driver, and the help file is here.

You can setup a DSN, or use the connection strings found on connectionstrings.com

Driver={Lotus NotesSQL 8.51 (32-bit) ODBC DRIVER (*.nsf)};Server=myServerAddress; Database=dbPath\myDb.nsf;Uid=myUsername;Pwd=myPassword;

How about LEI? (Lotus Enterprise Integrator)

I think is free with Domino and it lets you create ODBC connections and schedules jobs, etc.

You should look into it.
